We had a small party for my youngest niece Tabitha, who turns 6 today. We had some guests, friends of my grandfather's, including two adorable little kids, a 3-year-old boy and a 1-year-old girl. Enjoy these photos.

The show will start at a special early start time of 3:30 Eastern/2:30 Central, with guest Thom Powell (The Locals: A Contemporary Investigation of the Bigfoot/Sasquatch Phenomenon). And as always, we encourage you to please tune in and support great research.

It's back. The creepy gnome of cell-phone camera fame has made another appearance, this time in Clodomira, Argentina. What are these diminutive creatures? Are they creatures at all, or midgets playing pranks? Also, something else creepy has reappeared in Phantom Clowns Are Back!

Beneath the streets of Portland, Oregon, lies a network of tunnels which once hid some of the seediest and darkest activities of the city's beginnings, but now lies dormant. Or does it? Do the spirits of prostitutes, drug addicts and Shanghai victims still roam the tunnels?

Picture this: an average hunter or hiker, walking in the forest or on a mountain trail, just minding his/her own business. Suddenly, the hiker/hunter comes across something hunched over on all fours. It is black or dark-brown in color, and the witness immediately assumes it to be a bear, so the witness breaks out the bear mace. But, the witness gets the shock of his/her life when it stands up on two legs, looks at the witness with a more humanlike face and humanlike posture and walks off into the deeper forest. The witness is flabbergasted and is unsre of what to do next. The witness was prepared for a bear, but not for what could only be a Sasquatch or Bigfoot! This scenario is more common than most may realize. A witness assumes he/she saw a bear, but then the true nature of the creature in question becomes clear. Of course, bears are primarily quadraped walkers, only standing briefly on their hind legs to observe a landscape further, and almost certainly not being habitually bipedal, only being able to take a few short steps before reverting back to quadraped status. Many eyewitness reports of sightings from a good distance have been observed of a Sasquatch which was on all fours and was assumed to be a black or Grizzly bear, but then the individual witnessed stood up and walked on its two legs, bipedally, like humans. There is always the possibility that a witness thought he saw a Sasquatch, possibly under poor lighting or at a distance, but it turned out to be a bear. The reverse has also happened, where something assumed to be a bear turned out to be a Sasquatch. John Bindernagel, a retired wildlife biologist, has examined this possibility in his excellent book North America's Great Ape: The Sasquatch, but also included two sketches which showed a bear standing at front and side profile, and also another sketch of a Sasquatch in the same position, which is used almost as a field guide-type drawing to give people a clue as to the differences between an upright bear and a bipedal primate. It is also believed by some that low-flying helicopters and planes passing over a wilderness area may see a hunched-over creature which is assumed to be a bear, but may in fact be a Sasquatch, utilizing natural "camouflage" to fool witnesses. So, next time one is in the woods and sees what appears to be a hunched-over bear on all fours, may in fact be witnessing a Sasquatch.

First up is the Texas Bigfoot Conference which has as speakers Kathy Strain, Robert Swain, Jeff Meldrum, David Paulides and Harvey Pratt, Daryl Colyer, Dana Holyfield, Henner Fahrenbach and Alton Higgins. The event begins in the morning at 10:00 Central at the Jefferson High School in Jefferson, Texas, with doors opening at 9:00 A.M. Eastern.

A team of paranormal researchers, intrigued by an apparent ghost picture taken the Blairadam Woods, went to the scene of the photo to investigate further. Now, they have more questions than answers. What did they see? More importantly, what did their dog see?

Could the the nasal passages in the strangely-shaped skulls of the duck-billed, crested dinosaurs known as lambeosaurus, have been used for fairly complicated communication between dinosaurs? "Their sophisticated brains, coupled with a highly-specialized organ for communication, does suggest a potential for speech." And on TV we have MonsterQuest: The Future and Lost Tapes: New Series. And don't miss Mass Monster Mash this weekend.
